<a name="gtk3-Orientable.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>The <a class="link" href="gtk3-Orientable.html#GtkOrientable"><span class="type">GtkOrientable</span></a> interface is implemented by all widgets that can be
oriented horizontally or vertically. Historically, such widgets have been
realized as subclasses of a common base class (e.g <a class="link" href="GtkBox.html" title="GtkBox"><span class="type">GtkBox</span></a>/<a class="link" href="GtkHBox.html" title="GtkHBox"><span class="type">GtkHBox</span></a>/<a class="link" href="GtkVBox.html" title="GtkVBox"><span class="type">GtkVBox</span></a>
or <a class="link" href="GtkScale.html" title="GtkScale"><span class="type">GtkScale</span></a>/<a class="link" href="GtkHScale.html" title="GtkHScale"><span class="type">GtkHScale</span></a>/<a class="link" href="GtkVScale.html" title="GtkVScale"><span class="type">GtkVScale</span></a>). <a class="link" href="gtk3-Orientable.html#GtkOrientable"><span class="type">GtkOrientable</span></a> is more flexible in that
it allows the orientation to be changed at runtime, allowing the widgets
to “flip”.</p>
<p><a class="link" href="gtk3-Orientable.html#GtkOrientable"><span class="type">GtkOrientable</span></a> was introduced in GTK+ 2.16.</p>
